Mediterranean walls, artificial reefs and shore-based freediving from two Lycian-coast towns.
Aperçu
Kas and Kalkan are neighboring but distinct Turkish Mediterranean dive bases. Kas harbor supports day boats to rocky reefs, dramatic walls, historic-looking underwater settings and purpose-sunk artificial reefs. Kalkan has its own dive access from Kalamar Bay, including guided shore entries and compact two-dive morning trips. Dedicated freediving schools operate in Kas, while both towns suit swimming, snorkeling, Lycian walks and beaches. May-June and September-October balance water activities with milder crowds and heat; summer is warmer but busier. Archaeological material, caves and deep military wrecks are not unrestricted recreational attractions. Confirm each permitted dive site with an authorized local guide.

Choose Kas harbor for its wider published reef and wall circuit, or Kalamar Bay in Kalkan for compact guided shore and morning boat diving. ; .
